Is this because of Jewish Space Lasers or Karl Rove's Weather Machine?

"about to blow" in this context probably means within the next couple thousand years

Yes, it is a hydrothermal area of the park, and it had a hydrothermal explosion.

A little bigger than normal, but not an unknown or surprising occurrence at Yellowstone.

The volcano is not "about to blow." In fact the entire caldera has been subsiding for the past decade which means there is actually less magma pressure in the system.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Its in the geyser area that I think sits south between Grand Prismatic and Old Faithful.
